And again into our midst came a
child of yesterday, and when he did
there was rejoicing. Early yesterday
morning, out upon Broadway, attired
in the latest frock of the season and
wearing that happy-go-lucky smile,
came Curley Smith, Oklahoma's great-
est welterweight, who is now issuing a
broad, but seemingly true, challenge
to any man in the world. He is in re-
ality, "rarin' to go," and now he, with
promoters, is seeking some of the fast-
est contenders in his class, to mix it
here on the thirteenth.
It is probable that Johnny Dunn,
who was badly disappointed by not
getting a mill with Vic Wright here
Christmas, will be Smith's opponent.
Telegraphic communications are now
in order and a telegram to Dewar, lo-
cated the Pacific Coast welterweight,
who wili doubtless stccept the promot-
er's offer to meet the Bartlesville
whirlwind here on the date scheduled.
And when he does there is plenty of
assurance of a real battle, for both
boys are of the aggressive class, and
their dispositions won't allow slow
work within the ring, which their for-
mer engagements have shown.
If Dunn refuses to meet Smith, it is
probable that Wildcat Ferns will be
taken on for the bout on the thir-
teenth. Ferns is now in training at
his camp at Oklahoma City, preparing
for any good offer that may be made
him. He and Smith would make a
match worth the money, and many are
j trying to get him over here so that
the fight-fans of Drumright will see
a real battle—worth while.
Smith, still claiming that no boy
in this grand old U. S. A. has anything
on him, is determined to take on all
welterweights and middleweights this
winter. He has offered to post a for-
feit if he fails to make 145 pounds
and says that any boy, no matter of
what nationality or of what record, is
at liberty to accept his flying chal-
lenge, which covers the globe.

Washington, Jan. 3.—The sending
| of Henry P. Fletcher to his post at
Mexico City as America nambassador
and the subsequent withdrawal of the
American expedition are expected to
be the next developments in the Mex-
ican situation. Official confirmation or
comment is being withheld at this
time.
The outcome is bound up with the
decision of General Carranza's latest
communications in regard to the pro-
tocol which gives indication of being
of such nature as not to close the ne-
gotiations.,It is understood it will not
be affected by the absence of General
Carranza's ambassador, Mr. Arredon-
do.
Arredondo Recalled
M. Arredondo, Mexican ambassador
designate, announced late today that
he had been requested by his govern-
ment to come to Mexico City and con-
fer with General Carranza and his
advisers over the relations with the
United States. He said he expected to
return here in about three weeks and
to resume his duties as diplomatic
representative of the de facto govern-
ment.
Roma P. Denegri, Carranza consul-
general of San Francisco, will be in
charge of the embassy.
Withdrawal Reported
When General Carranza sent his re-
cent appeal for modifications in the
protocol drawn by the American-Mex-
ican commission, it was reported that
he would withdraw Mr. Arredondo as
j a mark of his displeasure at the action
of the American commissioners in de-
■ manding a final decision on the agree-
ment by December 6. Mr. Arredondo
denied then that he was to be with-
j drawn and declared that if he left
Washington it would be to confer
with his chief as he did recently. In-
formation about his departure was re-
fused today at the Mexican embassy
where it was said a statement would
be issued later.
Relatione More Strained
There were various undercurrents
apparent in official circles today
which gave a semblance of color to re-
ports that the relations with Mexico
were again becoming strained. Henry
P. Fletcher, recently confirmed as
ambassador to Mexico, but who never
has gone to his post, had an engage-
ment to conter wltTi President Wil-
son later in the day and the Ameri-
can commissioners held a long confer-
ence considering General Carranza's
reply to their request for either rati-
fication or a repudiation of the Atlan-
tic City protocol.
Mr. Arredondo is General Carran-
za's nephew and has represented the
de facto government here longer than
any of his predecessors.
Make Take Cabinet Place
It has been understood here for
some time that General Carranza was
intending to summon Mr. Arredondo
home to become minister of the inte-
rior. Whether this was the cause of
his departure could not be established.
It is said, however, that several
changes are impending in the Car-
ranza cabinet. Juan Sanchez Azcona,
minister to Spain, France and Great
Britai, is returning to take a place in
the foreign office and is expected to
become minister of foreign affairs
soon after.
Munroe, La., Jan. 3.—With the
discovery of oil in the Cordova, Ala.,
oil fields, President Wilson will be
urged to paruon E. C. Drew, now
serving a sentence in the federal pris-
on at Atlanta, Ga. Four years ago
Drew organized an oil company in
Alabama to drill in the Cordova field,
claiming oil could be found. He was
arrested for fraud and convicted, oil
experts declaring oil could not be
found in the field. Recent discover-
ies of oil there, Drew's friends claim,
vindicates his judgment and the hon-
esty of his efforts.

MAN BLEEDS TO DEATH
Tulsa, Okla., Jan. 3.—Dr. Everett
H. Muller, 60 years old, sat down on
the root of a tree growing on the
banks of the Arkansas river, took a
penknife from his pocket, slit the ar-
tery in his left wrist and watched him-
self bleed to death. The body was
found Monday morning by a farmer
near Bruner station on the Sand
Springs railway line. In a pocket a
card was found which directed that J.
J. Loeb of Richard, Texas, be notified
by the finder of the corpse.
INVOICING
At the revival la<il night, the pas-
tor of the Methodist Church urged |
the necessity of church members mak-
ing an invoice of the religious stock to
see if they had a full, up-to-date
stock of religion on hand. The mer-
chant's invoice often discloses that he
has a lot of shelf-worn, out-of-date
stuff on hand, not worth thirty cents
on the dollar. A good many church
members should have a Clearance
Sale and restock with a religion that
their neighbors will want. The reason
the world don't want your religion is
because it is a mere sham. The sub-
ject tonight will be "Heart Trouble."
There will be a meeting of the Sufi-
day School officers and teachers at the
close of the service tonight.
